Drawing strength from the anger she felt at being falsely confined in an Iranian prison for more than two years is how Kylie Moore-Gilbert learned to survive.
The Australian academic was held in Tehran's Evin Prison for 804 days on trumped-up spying charges after she was seized on her way to Tehran Airport in late 2018.
Dr Moore-Gilbert spent seven excruciating months in solitary confinement and has revealed the gruesome details of what she endured, in her first TV interview since her release last November.

I'm sure Biden/Obama will send pallet loads of cash to Iran again in retaliation.

Biden did better than that. As we slowly return to $4 Obama-priced gas, the Iranian mullahs are enjoying the booming price of oil, which has soared from $38 to $66 in the four months since Biden stole the election in November. And they're celebrating the stolen election in Russia and Venezuela too.

An Ozzy Woman with a Phd in Islamic Studies goes to Iran to lecture and was SHOCKED to find herself imprisoned up for years.
I don't have a Phd in Islamic Studies (I do have a minor in Western Religion - including Islam), but I'm informed enough to assume that the Islamic Regime would do this (again). Her husband cheated on her with another Phd in her office. Hey, it's Islam - it's A OK for him to marry another woman in her office while she is gone, right? Isn't that in your lecture? Phd didn't cover that? Why be upset?
I'm not completely unsympathetic. I'm just busy having sympathy for people who are suffering for things that aren't the direct consequences of their own decisions.

Agree #3.
A few years back my young daughter told me she wanted to take a trip and visit Myanmar. I told her, "don't make me come over there and get you." She didn't go. Use your common sense.

Well reasoned, #3, but no comparison to what the Apostle Paul endured most of his life, and still blessed us with God’s Word, even from years in prison at the end.
Let’s hope she may have read the Gospel of John in her confinement and repents...

Sounds like radical Islam to me. Still can't figure out why the Democrats are so hell bent on a treaty that gives them the OK to make a NUCLEAR BOMB!

Biden is cozying up to the Iranians so he can get tips on their compliance techniques so they may be applied to the 75 million or so white supremacist terrorists who voted for Trump.

Traveling to other parts of the world, even hostile places, is built upon a naivete fostered in schools by young teachers/profs and parents who believe going to hike in the mountains between Iraq and Iran for example is like going to visit the Grand Canyon. If you have been in the military or a civilian who has supported the military around the globe you know the score about these poop holes. However, it is hard to convince others that the US is the best country in the world (for how long?) and that even going out for a walk in other countries may be life threatening. They just don't get it.
